The real question is will it restore slimkat with data because I haven't seen that on twrp or cwm

tbh, i haven't tried yet. I'll have to back it up and then restore to see if it does.

loving the ability to be able to restore from TWRP and CWM. this is definitely the best recovery (besides Devil Recovery) that I've used in a long time!

I know the original thread given abive says I need to flash via odin. But I just want to ask, I am currently on TWRP recovery can I just flash the zip file for philz recovery? Or do I need to flash it via odin only using the tar file?

Flash with TWRP and reboot to recovery to check it out. Pretty sweet I must say!

only for new ROMs with selinux, so not for the Note 2 I think as you still have old TW non selinux ones

Ohhh I thought this would help a KitKat ROM like cm11 survive a restore lol oh well. My next question is could having selinux enabled hamper me on a backup and restore? Because its already done lol

I think kitkat cm11 roms use permissive selinux permissions, so not affected. Stock CWM doesn't support selinux. However, maybe on some apps it could help
In any case, for cm-10.2 and 11, it is a good idea to have it enabled

Love this! Needed a new change up from TWRP. However I wasn't able to find fix permissions. Did I miss something mate?
